Landmark Church

On this Resurrection Sunday we begin to examine Luke's gospel in a very unusual place. The Roman soldiers are nailing a sign on the cross where Jesus has been crucified. The sign reads, "King of the Jews"  On either side of Jesus is crucified a criminal sentenced to die. It is here that we discover a microcosm of humanity. One criminal did not believe that Jesus was the Messiah. The other may not have started out believing Jesus was the Messiah, but as he neared death his heart softened. God is looking for those whose hearts can still soften. Lastly, we look at that first Resurrection Morning at a Vital Truth that each of us make a decision about--just as the two criminals that were crucified with Jesus.
